Individual and Couples therapy
Modalities of therapy delivery
Online therapy: I offer professional and confidential telehealth services, so you can access psychological care from your home, using only a computer or smartphone connected to the Internet.​ Online appointments are a great option for individuals and couples who want to avoid travel time and/or prefer accessing support from their homes.
​
​In-person therapy: For those seeking privacy and a safe space for in-person therapy, I offer face-to-face appointments every Tuesday and Thursday in a therapy room in Surry Hills, just a 5-minute walk from Central Station.

Individual therapy
I’m passionate about supporting individuals facing challenges in their relationships, whether romantic or non-romantic. I can help with issues such as intimacy, avoidance or excessive criticism, unhealthy dating patterns and dating anxiety, breakups, boundary issues, assertiveness and communication.
​
I have extensive experience supporting individuals navigating challenges in their adult lives and relationships, often rooted in early negative experiences, impactful or traumatic events, and attachment wounds.
​
I have a particular interest in helping individuals who experience poor self-esteem/self-confidence, co-dependency, excessive self-criticism, imposter syndrome, procrastination and lack of motivation, unhealthy lifestyles, cultural, ethnic, and sexual identity concerns, excessive shyness, grief and loss, career, life transitions, and life and career dissatisfaction.
​
My goal is to empower individuals to overcome challenges and build resilience. With compassion and expertise, I am dedicated to helping you heal, grow stronger, and cultivate meaningful connections in your life.
​
Couples therapy
I help couples strengthen their relationship and navigate conflicts, communication problems, cultural and personal differences, lack of connection, trust issues, infidelity, sexual concerns, external stressors such as work and extended family dynamics, pregnancy and parenting, and support of a partner with health/mental health issues.
I welcome the opportunity to support both opposite-sex and same-sex couples on their journeys toward better communication, deeper understanding, and the development of a more secure attachment.
My goal is to help couples rediscover their connection and build fulfilling, lasting relationships that nurture their mental, emotional, and physical well-being.

Nervous about therapy?
Feeling a bit nervous about starting therapy is perfectly normal.
I aim to create a safe and comfortable atmosphere for my clients from their very first contact with me and my team.
Ensuring that you feel confident in choosing the right therapist for your needs is crucial to me.
That’s why I offer a complimentary 10-minute consultation with a RISE team member, allowing you to ask any questions you might have without any obligation to commit to therapy.
I want your therapeutic journey to begin with trust and ease.
Your therapy journey
Let's kickstart your therapy journey by diving into your expectations, what you feel you need support with, any worries or questions on your mind, and getting comfy with the whole therapy process.
​
To start off, I'll lead the conversation, looking into your situation, any specific challenges you're facing, and the goals you have in mind.
​
Everyone has their unique story, challenges, and goals. I'm here to meet you where you are, and collaborate with you on overcoming the issues you want to tackle, working towards the outcomes you're aiming for.
What to expect
At RISE, a couple's therapy journey has three stages.
First, we explore strategies to tackle de-escalating conflicts.
Next, we focus on restructuring interactions, learning to turn toward each other, openly discuss needs, and be more responsive.
The third and final step is consolidation. Here, I'll guide you in recognising past negative patterns and show how you've changed them, setting the foundation for future positive conversations.
